"The train sounded its horn but initially Street did not appear to hear the train as it approached," Hopkins wrote in a news release. "Street did turn at the last minute but not in enough time to move out of the way and was subsequently struck."

Street was pronounced dead at 12:23 p.m., a spokesman for the Joppa-Magnolia Volunteer Fire Company said.

The train was en route to Jacksonville, Fla., from North Bergen, N.J., and included three locomotives and 20 cars, according to CSX. The railroad did not have any more details immediately available on the incident.

The train was held at the Joppa Road crossing for about 90 minutes as CSX Police and the Sheriff's Office investigated. The train did not impede any local roadway at grade crossings, police said.

Street's body has been taken to the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner for an autopsy.

Two people were taken to area hospitals with unknown injuries after a five-vehicle crash at Route 924 and Ring Factory Road in the Bel Air area this morning, spokesman Rich Gardiner of Harford County Volunteer Fire & EMS Association said.
